Even the vicious mass murderer Ted Bundy had admirers who swore he was innocent. But in this age in which there are pictures of Dzokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev at the Boston Marathon finish line pre-explosions with backpacks and post explosions without backpacks, and also pictures of the exploded backpacks, not to mention the reported admission by Dzhokhar that he and his brother built and detonated the bombs, it is hard to believe there are those who insist the Tsarnaevs are innocent.

But there are.

And some of those who maintain this position have very carefully put together loving video homages to the Tsarnaevs, complete with pictures that have not yet been shown in the media.

Some of the pictures in the video are of the boys growing up, many are of the older brother, Tamerlan, in the gym, quite a few show Dzokhar hanging out with friends. There are some artistic renderings and some of various milestone events. In one picture Dzokhar is shown in front of the Chechen flag, in another he looks out seductively from behind a tangle of dark curls.

Interspersed between the photographs are messages in Russian, proclaiming the innocence of the Tsarnaevs. The images slide by, the music is eastern and hypnotic. An audiovisual ode to monsters.

I am always impressed with people who take the positions that (a) our friends didn't commit the crime [of killing Jews/Westerners/Americans/Other Innocents] and, at the same time, (b) it's good that they did because their victims are (were) evil. Equally impressive is the ability of the useful idiots in the West who support such murderers to hold these two inconsistent ideas in their heads at the same time.

WHERE ARE THE Imams? LIKE OTHER HORRIBLE DEMONIC MURDERERS, this individual should be buried. In America we do the right thing even with disgusting murderers. I am willing to help any Imam find a cemetery to bury this MONSTER.. THIS IS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and we are people who follow the will of our creator. LET it bE KNOWN THAT A JEW HAD COMPASSION AND LET GOD SEND HIM TO HELL. RABBI DR. BERNHARD ROSENBERG
